Check it out on Google maps! Energy conserving adobe has low, low utility bills. Wood stoves and a gas furnace keep the home cozy warm on the coldest winter nights. On the hottest days of summer (this year was a record breaker) the Master Cool evaporative cooler and huge thermal mass of the adobe keep the home comfortable with low electric bills. There are no city water or sewer bills. Domestic well provides clean, good tasting, mineralized water. A neighbor's engine-driven well provides flood irrigation to the pecans. Built in the traditional style of old Mexico: brick-on-sand floors, foot-thick walls, massive vigas, rough hewn lintels, and herringbone latillas make this well-built home memorable. Stained glass fleur-de-lis window accents the 12 ft high ceiling in the living room. Coved plaster ceiling in the formal dining room adds elegance to everyday dining. Simple, functional cabinets and fixtures are in an efficient kitchen that features a daily-use woodstove that cooks meals and warms the entire house. A 500 sq ft glass-enclosed porch is a wonderful dining room for large family Thanksgiving meals. Heat your home for free! A supply of wood is already seasoned and stacked right outside the back door. The mature orchard provides all the firewood you need, and is an opportunity to give those teenagers something to do! Offered AS IS with full disclosure. Deferred maintenance issues, ageing appliances, and other defects do not adversely affect the utility or livability of this older home. Remodel this unique property and make it truly your own for decades and generations to come.
